I'm not capping resist, I run very cleanly with ~25, and ran with ~10 for a few weeks. I play SC and rarely take damage so it's just not a priority.
Ya you also have 7000 hp from a bo barb and an enchant sorc for exploding arrows
But yea it’s true, if you only play 1 license, even then resists don’t matter too much. But mist is the best bow for damage even when not factoring resists.
Can get 12k magic damage, max resist, 275 mf, 4300 hp, and 75 fcr with mist/gheeds/maras/sling/opal/magefist without a prebuff on hex bane. It still shreds p8 and you can even run 3 defilers with 100% peirce and melt everything
